We give bounds on the number of solutions to the Diophantine equation (X+1/x)(Y+1/y) = n as n tends to infinity. These bounds are related to the number of solutions to congruences of the form ax+by = 1 modulo xy.

Let $a, b\in \mathbb{N}$ be relatively prime. Previous work showed that exactly one of the two equations $ax + by = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ and $ax + by + 1 = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ has a nonnegative, integral solution; furthermore, the solution is unique.…

We study purely exponential Diophantine equations with four terms of consecutive bases. Notably, we prove that all solutions to the equation \[ n^x=(n+1)^y+(n+2)^z+(n+3)^w \] in positive integers $n,x,y,z$ and $w$ are given by…
